Skip to content Standing seam is the clean, modern metal roof you see on the best new extensions and architect-designed homes. Long panels joined by raised seams, with no fixings on show, in zinc, aluminium or copper. It stays watertight on low pitches that slate and tile can’t manage, and it lasts for decades. Fitted by a family firm of skilled roofers since 1969.

Standing seam is the system, the way the metal is folded and joined. The metal you fold it from sets the look, the lifespan and the cost. Here’s the honest difference.
The classic standing-seam metal. A soft grey that weathers to a natural protective patina, a layer that forms on the surface and shields it. Premium look, long life, low upkeep.
Lightweight and rust-proof, in a wide range of powder-coated colours like anthracite grey. It stands up well to coastal and exposed sites, and suits sharp modern designs.
The standout choice. Warm and bright when new, weathering to a green patina over the years. For feature roofs and homes that want to be noticed
From a single extension roof to a full architectural project, we form and fit the lot.
Most roof problems start small and quiet, then get expensive. If you have spotted any of these, it is worth getting them looked at before the next downpour.
We come out, get on the roof, and find exactly what is wrong.
You get a clear, itemised price. No call-out charge, no pressure.
Our own crew carries out the work, tidily and on the agreed date.
We show you what we did and stand over the work.
We look at the roof and the design, and help you pick the metal, colour and seam to suit the building and budget
A clear written price covering the deck, the insulation, the metal and the detailing. No vague estimates.
We build the warm deck, then form and seam the panels on site, working to the precision the system needs.
We detail the junctions, flashings and edges, clear the site, and leave you the paperwork and workmanship cover.
A few recent repairs around Dublin. Real jobs, real homes.
Standing seam is a premium roof, dearer upfront than tile or felt, and it earns it with a long life, low upkeep and a look that lifts the whole building. What moves the price most is the metal you choose (coated steel through to copper), the size and complexity of the roof, whether there are curves or tricky junctions, the insulated build-up underneath, and the access. Use the calculator for a guide, then book a free survey and we’ll put a fixed price in writing.

A metal roof made of long vertical panels joined by raised seams that stand up above the surface, with the fixings hidden underneath. Because the joins sit above the water line and nothing pierces the surface, it’s extremely weathertight, which is why it works on low pitches and modern extensions.
No, not when it’s done right. Laid over solid decking and insulation, a standing seam roof is no louder inside than a tiled one. The drumming people imagine comes from thin sheeting fixed to bare battens, which is a different thing entirely.
It works on low pitches that slate and tile can’t, which is exactly why it suits modern flat-to-pitched extensions and contemporary homes. The minimum depends on the system, and we’ll confirm the right one for your roof at the survey
Zinc is the classic premium look with a natural grey patina. Aluminium is light, rust-proof and comes in many colours, which suits coastal and modern designs. Copper is the standout, weathering to green over time. We’ll talk you through the look, the budget and what suits the building. See our zinc and copper pages.
